I use a TUOSHI Unlocked 4G LTE Router with SIM Card Slot:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07JJ5V2SJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have that connected to the Ethernet WAN port on my regular router.

Over the last 18 months speedtest by Ookla shows an average of 5.39 Mbps.
It's 530 PM local here the NJ Philly suburbs and the current DL is 11.74 Mbps with UL = 1.35 Mbps.

I buy the SIM and service from OTR Mobile: https://otrmobile.com/
The cost is $90/month. I don't know the initial price of a SIM or the startup fee.
